Highlight • Natural Monument

The Bardenas Reales are a semi-desert area with an area of 42,000 ha located in Spain, southeast of Navarre, between Tudela and Carcastillo. This nature reserve has particular vegetation as well as impressive rock formations due to erosion, a recurring phenomenon here, of which the Castil de tierra is the most emblematic manifestation.

Castildetierra Hill

Highlight • Natural Monument

Mount Castildetierra, in Blanca Baja, is a unique geological formation in Navarre, unique and of particular interest for its landscape and educational value.

It's a fairy chimney. It is a large natural column of soft rock, generally of sedimentary origin (clay or shale and marl), whose top is formed by a more resistant sandstone rock that protects this column from erosion. These types of formations can range from the height of a man to that of a ten story building. The variety of colors is due to the different minerals that make it up. The dominant erosion forces in the Cabezo de Castildetierra are the force of the rains and the wind in the region (the north wind). Strong canyons are observed in the lowest part of the structure. To avoid further deterioration, one must enjoy this work of nature a few meters away.

Cortinas Reservoir

Highlight • Lake

The Embalse de Cortinas reservoir is of great ecological value since it has all the vegetation belts (submerged, amphibious and emerging). The Cortinas reservoir biologically balances an ecological area larger than its own wet environment.
